Make the trek over the bridge and into Brooklyn's Dyker Heights to see a dizzying display of Christmas lights. Each year, the neighborhood comes alive with decorations and displays that can only be described as over-the-top. For optimal viewing, plan on going in mid-December and consider taking a car. While the subway gets you close, many of the most impressive displays are a mile or more from the station, and younger ones might have an issue traipsing the crowded neighborhood by foot. If a car isn't an option, there's always the bus. One thing is for sure: it doesn't matter how you get here, just that you make it.
